On some SCO installations or versions, bc has a bug that gets triggered when you run the test suite (using “make test”). The message returned is “bc: 1 not implemented”. The best way to deal with this is to find another implementation of bc and compile/install it. GNU bc (see http://www.gnu.org/software/software.html for download instructions) can be safely used, for example.
